Im a 59-year-old virgin and my wife doesnt want…
DEAR ABBY: I’m a 59-year-old married virgin male. My wife has an IUD for medical causes. She thinks it’s the person’s job to provoke intercourse. She has never shown any curiosity in intercourse in almost 20 years of marriage. I like her, but I’m prepared to divorce her.
I don’t want to go through life without a intercourse life, let alone die a virgin. We have no money for therapy. She’s going to be 51 soon. I’ve been told by different girls that it’s just not in her, and she’ll never have an interest. What ought to I do? — WANTING MORE
DEAR WANTING MORE: This might seem to be a foolish query, but have you ever tried to provoke intercourse? Your letter is a bit imprecise on that level. It’s not the “job” of one accomplice or the other, but somebody has to get the ball rolling. A more important query is this: Did your wife let you know she was not in intercourse before you bought married? Did the 2 of you never focus on it?
Ask your wife immediately if she thinks she’ll ever be prepared to take this step with you. If the reply is no, please perceive that it’s OK to end a relationship with somebody — even if you like them — if they aren’t prepared to provide you with what you need.
DEAR ABBY: My son-in-law takes my granddaughter for a stroll every day. They live in a good space, but he insists on carrying a loaded gun in the stroller. My daughter doesn’t appear to query this, and if I press either one, I get the impression that they are going to cut off my access to my granddaughter. What recourse, if any, do I’ve to shield the kid from a mindless gun-related accident? — FEARFUL IN PHOENIX
DEAR FEARFUL: It’s unhappy that, despite dwelling in a good neighborhood, your son-in-law feels so weak. All you are able to do is attempt to guarantee that he has a license to carry his gun and hope he has taken (and handed) a course in gun security.

DEAR ABBY: Twenty years in the past, I moved into a modest home owned by my sister to help her with bills. Shortly after, she received a job promotion and switch. I stayed, took care of repairs and paid her rent. A pair of years later, she signed it over to me as a Christmas current. I did put 1000’s of {dollars} and many hours of labor into repairs. If I promote it now, do I owe her a share of the earnings? — HANDYMAN IN ILLINOIS
This reader desires to know if they owe their sister any of the earnings if they select to promote the home. Christopher Sadowski for NY Post
DEAR HANDYMAN: You don’t owe your sister a share of the earnings for the home. She gave it to you, so it’s yours to do with as you would like. If you desire to to give her a portion of the proceeds to thank her for the chance, it’s your alternative.
DEAR VETERANS: For your service to our nation, I salute you. My thanks to each of you on this Veterans Day. You personify patriotism, self-sacrifice and dedication to our nation.
